Example: A data entry tech request a customer profile.
The system gets a CustomerProfile business model object from the data access layer. The CustomerProfile business model is debriefed into a CutomerProfileForm ActionForm object. The values from the CutomerProfileForm are displayed in text fields through customeProfile.jsp. A data entry tech checks the data on the screen against a paper copy and determines that everything is correct. Nothing has changed so the database does not need to be updated. We could add a special button or a checkbox for "No Changes", but we want to keep the data entry process as simple as possible. We could hold onto the original copy of CustomerProfile or CustomerProfileForm and compare for changes. Or we could just send an update even when nothing changes (i.e., it doesn't matter if something changes). I just have a feeling that there is a more elegant way to do this. Any suggestions? Thx.
